MT4-MMP deficiency increases patrolling monocyte recruitment to early lesions and accelerates atherosclerosis

MT4-MMP deficiency increases patrolling monocyte recruitment to early lesions and accelerates atherosclerosis

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are involved in vascular remodeling associated with plaque progression. Little is known about their immune regulatory role in vascular disorders. Here, the authors report that MT4-MMP-deficiency increases the recruitment of patrolling monocytes to early atheroscleroti...
